A Very Woeful Farewell
Finally it’s the end of the year! Time to move on for Year 6, (and more work for Year 5!). So many memories! It’ll be very sad for the Year 6’s because so many friends, they will not see for a long, long, time. This is a message to all the Year 5’s at B.S.P.S – Good luck in the future and always be your self! And this is a message to all the Year 6’s that are moving to high school at B.S.P.S – Always remember, there is more to you than meets the eye. Also, remember to be yourself and good luck in high school! Happy holidays everybody!

| This poem was written by a terminally ill young girl in a New York Hospital . It was sent by a medical doctor - Make sure to read what is in the closing statement AFTER THE POEM. SLOW DANCE Have you ever watched kids On a merry-go-round? Or listened to the rain Slapping on the ground? Ever followed a butterfly’s erratic flight? Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?
You better slow down. Don’t dance so fast. Time is short. The music won’t last.
Do you run through each day On the fly? Do you hear the reply? When the day is done Do you lie in your bed With the next hundred chores Running through your head?
You’d better slow down Don’t dance so fast. Time is short. The music won’t last.
Ever told your child, We’ll do it tomorrow? And in your haste, Not see his sorrow? Ever lost touch, Let a good friendship die Cause you never had time To call and say,”Hi”
You’d better slow down. Don’t dance so fast. Time is short. The music won’t last.
When you run so fast to get somewhere You miss half the fun of getting there. When you worry and hurry through your day, It is like an unopened gift…. Thrown away. Life is not a race. Hear the music Before the song is over. ——————– This young girl has 6 months left to live, and as her dying wish, she wanted to send a letter telling everyone to live their life to the fullest, since she never will. She’ll never make it to prom, graduate from high school, or get married and have a family of her own.
By you sending this to as many people as possible, you can give her and her family a little hope, because with every name that this is sent to, The American Cancer Society will donate 3 cents per name to her treatment and recovery plan. Dr. Dennis Shields, Professor |
